Hi Guys,

Noticed this for sale in Aldi. Equivalent to Hammerite. Not sure how close the match is and I'm half hour drive away from Aldi so can't investigate.

May be useful to someone, colour on website doesn't look too far away but it's impossible to tell unless you physically go and look at a can...

Other thought was if it is too dark, buy a white one as well and make your own to match...

Ill have a look after work!

Had a look, the colour on the front of the tin looks very dark.  Tried to open one with car keys and no luck, one to swerve I think.  More akin to navy green!

i had this problem finding the colour, found the easy option in the end

asked them for Pantone 348, got a couple of rattle cans and laquer later

 

hope the pic works

Shame, the website didn't look too far away! Never mind, on to the next idea

I know, I was hoping for a good match.  Luckily got the hallowed hammerite still.

Yeah, I picked up a couple of tins the other night being sold on here.

Had a large tin of it last year, my brother painted the brakes on his vRS and then kicked the tin over :(
